REvENNA, o., Dec. I9.-At o'clock
Sunday evening, after being out 20
hours, the jury in the Robinson case
brought in verdict Of guilty of muir
der in the first degree. Crowds hung
about the court room until midnight
Saturday night. Deputies paced up
and down before the jury room all
night. There was some little doubt in
the minds OF the prosecutors as to the
advisability of receiving the verdict on
Sunday, but the court finally decided
to do so. BY the gas jet, Clerk Porter
read the verdict. Robinson,s sisters
threw themselves upon their brother
with sobs. He tried to soothe them,
but the guards finally had to tear him
away and take him back to jail. The
condemned man was unmoved, and
went to Jail protesting his innocence.

New York Commercial Advertis-
er; In the fury of real estate
booms which now possess the west
one large field of speculation has
escaped the enterprise of our rust
ling fellow citizens. We allude to
the moon.
With great regularity and GER
tainty, that attendant orb displays
to our sight. about 100000 square
miles of unpossessed real estate.
Thanks to science, this large sur
face has been brought so near the
earth than an object no larger than
St. Peters church at Rome is dis
tinctiy visible. Here then, hang
ing over the earth, almost within
hailing distance, is tract of I'M
claimed real estate five times as
large as the United States.
1t is true the astronomers have
deliberately mapped out this great
public domain and christened it's
more striking landmarks. But this
work may be compared to the gov
eminent surveys which simply pave
the way to private title. We re-
peat that the whole surface of the
moon is to-day open to pre-emptlon
and sale. Any one who pleases
can file claim to section of Alba

one of the gentler slopes of Dorfel.
But why should any one care to
do so? What good would it do?

Few erroneous notions are spread
so readily and cling so tenaciously
as those respecting the weather.
In noticing common errors of this
kind, Prof. Cleveland Able, the dis
tinguished meteorologist, urges at
tention to these facts: That while
the moon might well be expected to
influence our weather, scientific evil
dence shows that it does not; that
there is no sound reason for believ-
ing that sunspots have any appre-
cable effect in producing storms or
other local changes; that animal in
5tinct ranks greatly below human
intelligence as q guide to future
weather; that the indications for
nished by plants are due to the by
droscopic condition of the air, as
are also other "signs," and are less
delicate and reliable than the accu-
rate instrumental tests of meteoro-
Iogists; that electricity and ozone
DO not produce the effects often as
cribed to them; that thunder storms
DO not cool the air, but the cool In
rush results, like the storm, from
the rise Of hot air-at least in many
cases; THAI it has not yet been prov
en- that the removal of forests and
the extension of railroads and tele-
graphs have Influenced our climate;
that the weather is materially the
same as in old fashioned times, sci
entitic records disproylng the faul
ty recollections of the oldest inhabi-
tant; and that severe storms are no
more liable to occur at the date of
the equinoxes, or on certain days
Of the week or month, than at other
lines
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1887-06-02

Most of our young readers will
be surprised to hear that the well
known nursery song of ''Mary had
a Little Lamb" is a true story, and
that Mary is still living. About
seventy years ago she was little
girl, the daughter Of a farmer in
Worcester county, Massachusetts.
She was very fond of going with
her father into the fields to see the
sheep, and one day they found ba-
by lamb which was thought to be
dead. Kind hearted little Mary,
however, lifted it up in her arms,
and as it seemed to breathe, she
carried it home, made it warm
bed near the stove, and nursed it
tenderly. Great was her delight
when, after weeks of careful feeding
and watching, her little patient be
gan to grow well and strong, and
soon after it was able to run about.
1t knew its young mistress perfect
ly, always came at her call, and was
happy when at her side. One day
it followed her to the village school
and not knowing what else to do
with it she put it under her desk
and covered it with her shawl.
There it stayed until Mary was
called up to the teachers desk to
say her lesson, and then the lamb
walked quietly after her and the
other children burst out laughing.
So the teacher had to shut the lit
tie girls pet in the wood shed until
school was out. Soon after this a
young student, named John Roll
stone, wrote little poem about Ma
ry and her lamb and presented it to
her. The lamb grew to be sheep
and lived for many years, and when
at last it died, Mary grieved so
much for it that her mother took
some of its wool, which was "as
white as snow" and knitted a pair
of stockings for her, to wear in re
membrance of her darling. Some
years after the lambs death, Mrs.
Sarah Hill, a celebrated woman who
wrote books, composed some verses
about Mays lamb and added them
to those written by John Rollstone,
making the complete poem as we
know it.
Mary took such good care of the
stockings made Of her lambs fleece,
that when she was a grown-up wo-
man she gave one of them to a
church fair in Boston. AS soon as
it became known that the stocking
was made from the fleece of "Mary's
little lamb" every one wanted
piece of it; so the stocking was raw
eled out and the yarn cut into
short pieces. Each piece was tied
to card on which "Mary" wrote
her full name, and these cards sold
so well that thsy brought the large
sum of one hundred and forty dol
lars to the Old South Chul CHI. -

The druggists of the state held 9
meeting in Nashville on the 18th
in the course of which the now
noted liquor law and the bill grant
ing relief from same, which was
passed by the last Legislature, was
reviewed and discussed, AS is well
known, the law required all drug
gists doing business in the state, and
who used alcohol in any form in
their business to take out state and
county license as retail liquor deal
ers. The druggists almost unani-
mously ignored the law, and last
year suit was brought against GER
tain leading firms in Nashville to
compel them to pay the tax, and
the courts decided that under the
law they were liable, not only for
1886 but for 81, 80, 'S3 '84 and 'S5
also. AS it would have been almost
ruin had the collection been en-
forced, the druggists wisely went
to work and secured the passage OF
bill relieving them of the tax.
The Nashville druggists being on
the scence of action, and the ones
against whom the suits were direct
ly brought, though every druggist
in the state were equally concerned,
did the work and bore the expense
incident to securing the passage of
the bill. At the meeting in Nash
vile the other day, the question OF
whether all the druggists of the
state were not under moral obliga-
tions to bear a share of the expen Sc,
was discussed. A delegate from
Chattanooga said those Of that
city had their share of it ready to
pay over as soon as they knew to
whom to pay it. 1t was finally de-
cided Sthat the matter should be
laid before the druggists of the
state through the press, and ali
who are wiling to help are request
ed to correspond with r. II. Gordon
of Demoville & Co., Nashville.
